Check it out!  I think it's going to be funny.

Does anybody else get the Mr. Horrible song from They Might Be Giants in their head every time they hear the name Dr. Horrible?  Just me?  Figures.

I totally missed what this was at first.  He's some detail if you haven't watched the teaser yet:

"During the WGA strike Joss Whedon started writing a three part musical series for the internet. Each of the three episodes will be approximately ten minutes each.  Co-writers for the internet feature are Joss’ brothers Zack and Jed and Jed’s Fiancé Maurissa Tancharoen .

“It’s the story of a low-rent super-villain, the hero who keeps beating him up, and the cute girl from the laundromat he’s too shy to talk to.” says Whedon.

“Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog” will star Neil Patrick Harris as Dr. Horrible, Nathan Fillion as Captain Hammer, Felicia Day as Penny and a cast of dozens.”

I am afraid I was one of the ones who made it crash  ;)

I watched it two times this morning! It was very funny! It is super campy and rather catchy and just dern silly. I hope you all get to see it really soon!

NPH is great in this - and NF is just so much fun to watch in his dashing hero get up with his "What a Man's Gotta Do" song :)

Kudos J, Z, J & M!!

I watched it a ton of times last night.  Good stuff.  Joss writes such addictive little songs.

Meh act 2 isn't as good IMO.  I like the final song but the rest of it was just sorta filler to lead up to the last act.  Oh and I liked captain hammer having to be way too specific about what the hammer is.  lol

So will Dr. Horrible get the girl?  Will his evil plans come to fruition!?  Find out next time on Dr. Horrible's sing-along blog!!!

I liked it better the second time I watched it.  I'll have to get the DVD when it comes out.

I laughed so hard at that part.  I like how over the top Hammer is - the cheese factor is amusing.
